The Austin-native is set to visit Oklahoma this weekend before deciding between the Sooners, Texas, Michigan and Auburn.

Anderson is a 6-foot-5, 300-pound product of Austin. He finished his high school career at Westlake and went unrecruited, signing with Rice as a two-star product. He was considered the No. 189-ranked offensive tackle in the 247Sports Composite. Rice was his only offer.

Anderson would immediately compete for the starting spot at left tackle if he chooses the Longhorns.
